This time we did two runs from 5-90 mph. He was ahead by 1/2 car length the first run and 1 car length the second. Either the HFC/Hondata tune made a small difference on his car or my heavier/taller track wheel setup is slowing me down, or both. I also got some wheelhop on the 1-2 shift but he said he did as well. Fun runs either way.

I like the 5k VTEC engagement on the Hondata tune. Powerband is noticeably wider now (5k-8k RPM). There's no more VTEC kick but I'd take usable midrange power anyday. One other thing I noticed today is call me crazy but I prefer the sound of my FA20 currently over his F22C. It didn't used to be like that so that was interesting after this past round of mods.
